I shot my Dad's quite a bit when I was a kid. It was the only .22 we had - and it got me into some major trouble (long story). Still holds a lot of memories.
So, I bought one myself several years ago. Stripped it and refinished it, redid the trigger guard, replaced any broken or stripped parts.
Previous owner cut a bit off the stock so I added a pad only to finish it and to bring it back to original length.

Unfortunately it doesn't thrill me as much as the original did, so I think I'm going to sell mine. Dad still has his - I should just use that one instead. :)



PS - now listed in the classifieds - though that's not why I initially made this posting.
